Lumikai was proud to be a sub-committee member at WAVES 2025, hosted by the Ministry of Information & Broadcasting in Mumbai. We successfully hosted two sessions as part of the summit, which saw strong participation and engagement from across the media and entertainment ecosystem.
Our first session, “From Swipes to Stories: India’s Interactive Media Consumer Unlocked,” marked the launch of Lumikai’s latest consumer research report. Presented by Salone Sehgal and Aditya Deshpande, the session shared insights from over 3,000 mobile users across India. Mr. Shuji Utsumi, President and COO of SEGA, opened the session with his remarks on India’s growing importance in the global gaming landscape.
The second session, “Billion Dollar Bets: Investor View on Gaming’s Next Frontier,” brought together Othman Alhokail, Founder and Managing Partner, Merak Capital, Deepen Parikh Partner, Courtside Ventures, and Shivanandan Pare, Head of Corporate Development, Gameskraft, in a panel moderated by Salone Sehgal. The discussion covered trends, capital flows, and market shifts in India and global gaming.
Thank you to WAVES and WAVEX for the platform. The sessions were insightful and led to engaging conversations for the members of the ecosystem, policy makers, young founders, and stakeholders in attendance.
At Lumikai, we continue to pioneer, catalyse, and shape the future of interactive media in India.











Got here through a link shared in a Ukraine gaming community late on a Tuesday night. What kept me engaged was a reasonable section on https://slotcity.ua/game-hall/high-rtp paired with real observations on pagination ellipsis spacing and page skip indicator gaps for UA players. No hype about pagination design perfection or ellipsis treatment brilliance. The understated style was pleasant. By the time I concluded, I felt satisfied, seemed like proper community dialogue.
Fascinating to see Lumikai’s deep dive into India’s interactive media landscape at WAVES 2025—from consumer research to investor insights, these sessions are shaping the future of gaming in the region, and it’s exciting to imagine how innovations like pcbportugal could further power the hardware side of this booming ecosystem.
